Step 1

Thermal energy is the total kinetic energy of the particles in an object due to their motion. Temperature measures the average kinetic energy of the particles in a substance. Specific heat is the amount of heat per unit mass required to raise the temperature by Show more…

00:01 So today, we've been given a thermal energy worksheet and we're asked to label if some statements are true or false.

00:07 Starting with number one, this is false.

00:11 All right? and this is false because all objects have thermal energy.

00:23 Okay? and the statement that we're given is that only warm or hot objects have thermal energy.

00:28 But that's not true because all objects do.

00:31 Okay.

00:31 Number two, if the particles of an object start to move more quickly, then the temperature will rise.

00:37 So particle movement increases.

00:42 So this is the up arrow.

00:43 Then so will the temperature.

00:47 And that is true.

00:49 Okay? because temperature is a measurement of the average kinetic energy.

00:55 So if our particles are moving a lot more, that means that they have a lot of energy.

01:04 Okay, and therefore that's true.

01:07 For number three, this is false.

01:13 And number three says that thermal energy is equal to temperature, and this is not true, temperature is the measure of the average kinetic energy, which is not thermal energy.

01:31 Four, an object with a higher temperature will always have a greater thermal energy than that with a lower temperature.

01:38 And this is false.

01:40 And so if we think about it, let's say we had a really, really, really hot cube.

01:46 Okay? it might be 100 degrees celsius, but it's really small.

01:51 It might only be one gram...
